55Yard was very clean and well maintained! It also smelled like fresh mulch which was a really Pleasant touch even if not intentional haha. My dog had a blast and enjoyed playing with the toys provided.
55This was a beautiful, well-kept, clean yard for the dogs to enjoy. They had a wonderful time, and the host was very accommodating. Can’t wait to come again!
55Such a great spot! Very quiet with lots of shade, places to sniff, and rocks to climb. Will definitely come back another time!
55Great spot
55We loved our visit! It was a beautiful day & this is a great Sniffspot. The yard was clean, and I was comfortable with the security of the fence. Finn was thrilled to have both an open lawn & parts that are more “natural” to explore.
55Large clean and safe yard. Dogs had a blast. Thank you!
55This Sniffspot was kept very clean, and there was a lot of room to run and sniff around. Fencing is a nice height especially for my pointer who loves to test her boundaries. Toys, sanitizer, poop bags, and water for the dogs/people was left out by the host. Having the pool as an option for the dogs in the summer is super cool.
55Great spot & thoughtful host. Large, private, clean yard with a secure fence. Convenient amenities and lots of fun toys. Bronson had a blast!
55It was a great space for running, sniffing, climbing rocks and relaxing. It was well kept and had plenty of seating, toys and water. The neighbors yards were closer than I expected and we did hear some dogs, but didn’t see any so it wasn’t an issue for Kanga. The yard is lined with trees, so I’m sure there’s more privacy when they have leaves.
55Jax loved this spot. Was our first time out at this kind of place and I know we will be back!!
